Large fingers pushing paint...
You're God and you got big hands. Colors blend... the challenges you give, man. Seek my part, devote myself. My small self like a book amongst the many on a shelf. Sometimes I know, sometimes I rise. Sometimes I fall, sometimes I don't. Sometimes I cringe, sometimes I live. Sometimes I walk, sometimes I kneel. Sometimes I speak of nothing at all. Sometimes I reach to myself, dear God. |

Lives opened and trashed,
Look, Ma, watch me crash, No time to question. Why'd nothing last? Grasp and hold on, We're dying fast. Soon be over and I will relent. Let the ocean swell, dissolve 'way my past. Three days and maybe longer, Won't even know I've left. Under your tongue, I'm like a tab, I will give you what you're not supposed to have. Under my breath, I swear by sin, for better or worse, A best we began. Let the sun climb, oh, burn 'way my mask. Three days and maybe longer. Shed my skin at last... shed... shed. Let the sun shine, burn 'way my mask. Three days and maybe longer, Won't ever find me here. Let the ocean dissolve 'way my past. Four days and not much longer... Let my spirit pass... This is, this is... This is, this is... This is, this is... This is, this is... my last exit. |

Don't feel like home
He's a little out And all these words alone Is nothing like your poem Putting in, inputting in Don't feel like methadone A scratching voice all alone It's nothing like your baritone It's nothing as it seems The little that he needs, it's home The little that he sees Is nothing he can seize, it's home One uninviting chromosome A blanket like the ozone It's nothing as it seems All that he needs is home The little that he frees Is nothing he believes Saving it for a sunny day Something maybe, two tone Anything of his own A chip off the corner stone Who's kidding? Rainy day A one way ticket headstone An occupation's overthrown A whisper through a megaphone It's nothing as it seems The little that he needs, it's home The little that he sees Is nothing he concedes, it's home And all that he frees A little bittersweet, it's home It's nothing as it seems The little that he sees, it's home |

I shut and locked the front door
No way in or out I turned and walked the hallway And pulled the curtains down I knelt and emptied the mouth of every plug around But nothing's sound, nothing's sound I stayed where my last cap left me Ignored all my rounds Soon I was seeing visions and cracks along the walls They're upside down I swallow my words to keep from lying I swallow my face just to keep from biting, I, I.. I swallowed my breath and went deep, I was diving, diving I surfaced and all of my being was enlightened Now...I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding It's been about three days now Since I've been aground No longer overwhelmed and it seems so simple now It's funny when things change so much It's all state of mind I swallowed my words to keep from lying I swallowed my face just to keep from biting, I, I I swallowed my breath and went deep, I was diving, I was diving I surfaced and all of my being was enlightened Now I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding, yeah Now I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding, yeah I'm in hiding... |

G-R-E-E-D G-R-E-E-D It's a disease and they're all green It emanates from their being A satiation with occupation And like weeds with big leaves Stealing light from what's beneath Where they have more Still they take more I know then I don't There's a stowaway with my throat It's deceiving I don't believe him We can scream out our doors Behind the wall a fat man snores In his dreams he's Choking tea leaves Well I guess There's nothing wrong with what you say But don't sell me "There can't be better ways" Tell the captain "The boat's not safe and we're drowning" Turns out He's the one making waves, waves, waves But I said There's nothing wrong with what you say Believe me Just asking you to sway No white Or black, just grey Can you feel this World with your heart and not your brain G-R-E-E-D G-R-E-E-D |

The waiting drove me mad
You're finally here and I'm a mess I take your entrance back Can't let you roam inside my head I don't want to take what you can give I would rather starve than eat your bread I would rather run but I can't walk Guess I'll lie alone just like before I'll take the firmest path Oh, and I must refuse your test Push me and I will resist This behavior's not unique I don't want to hear from those who know They can buy, but can't put on my clothes I don't want to limp for them to walk Never would have known of me before I don't want to be held in your debt I'll pay it off in blood, let I be wed I'm already cut up and half-dead I'll end up alone like I began Everything has chains Absolutely nothing's changed Take my hand, not my picture, spilled my tincture... I don't want to take what you can give I would rather starve than eat your breast All the things that others want for me Can't buy what I want because it's free Can't buy what I want because it's free Can't be what you want because I'm... Ain't supposed to be just one Oh, to live and die, let it be done I figure I'll be damned, all alone like I began It's your move now I thought you were a friend But I guess I... I guess I hate you... |

Vacate is the word
Vengeance has no place on me or her Cannot find the comfort in this world Artificial tear Vessel stabbed, next up, volunteers? Vulnerable, wisdom can't adhere A truant finds home and a will to hold on But there's a trapdoor in the sun It's immortality… As privileged as a whore Victims in demand for public show Swept out through the cracks beneath the door Holier than thou, how? Surrendered, executed, anyhow… Scrawls resolved, cigar box on the floor A truant finds home and a will to hold onto There's a trapdoor in the sun It's immortality... I cannot stop the thought running out the door Coming up a which way sign All good truants must decide Oh, stripped and sold, mom… Auctioned forearm and whiskers in the sink Truants move on, cannot stay long Some die just to live… Oh… |

I know about a man to whom I may be related, he's leatherman.
Died a long time ago in the 1880's...leatherman, leatherman. Covered with leather, but it wasn't tight. Underneath the moon in the woods at night... Makin' the rounds ten miles a day, Once a month they'd spot him, here's what they'd say... "Here he comes, he's a man of the land. He's leatherman. Smile on his face, an axe in his pack. He's leatherman." Comes out of the caves once a day to be fed. Wasn't known to say but "Thanks for the bread." So modern day I walk my way, my jacket faded, Just like a man of leather whom I may be related. Rolled a cigarette, but when he asked for a light, I thought he'd be an animal, but so polite. Makin' the rounds ten miles a day. Once a month they'd spot him and here's what they'd say... "Here he comes, he's a man of the land, he's leatherman. Smile on his face, an axe in his hand. He's leatherman." Shake his hand he's leatherman. Bake some bread he's leatherman. Shame he's dead. I saw his bed, It's all that's left of leatherman. Give me some skin, leatherman. |

This God forgotten place First comes love, then comes pain Let the games begin Questions rise and answers fall Insurmountable Love boat captain Take the reigns and steer us towards the clear, here It's already been sung, but it can't be said enough Is this just another phase Of earthquakes making waves? Trying to shake the cancer off Aah, stupid human beings Once you hold the hand of love It's all surmountable Hold me and make it the truth That when all is lost, there'll be you 'Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing And there's just one word I still believe And it's love It's an art to live with pain Mix the light into gray Lost nine friends we'll never know Two years ago today And if our lives became too long Would it add to our regret? And the young, they can lose hope 'Cause they can't see beyond today The wisdom that the old can't give away, hey Constant recall Sometimes life don't leave you alone Hold me and make it the truth That when all is lost, there will be you 'Cause to the universe I don't mean a thing And there's just one word that I still believe And it's love, love, love, love, love Love boat captain take the reigns Steer us towards the clear I know it's already been sung Can't be said enough Love is all you need All you need is love, love, love |

Down. Fall by the wayside no getting out.
Down. Cry me a river dried up and dammed. The names can be changed but the place is still the same. I am loaded. Told that all's for naught. Holds me down. Rise. Life is in motion. I'm stuck in line. Rise. You can't be neutral on a moving train. One day the symptoms fade. Think I'll throw these pills away. And if hope could grow from dirt like me. It can be done. Won't let the light escape from me. Won't let the darkness swallow me. So long. |
